Where to Watch Top Wing in the UK

Right now, Top Wing is on Paramount Plus and several other platforms, sitting at 8/10 on TMDB. Consistently well-regarded, and easy to understand why once you start watching.

Canadian production values give Top Wing a feel distinct from American and international alternatives. Best friends and cadets-in-training Swift, Penny, Rod, and Brody congregate at Top Wing Academy, where they learn what it takes to gain their wings and become rescue birds on Big Swirl Island. Swift is a blue jay and the fastest pilot at the academy; Penny, the only female in the group, is a penguin, and she is an expert at undersea life; Brody is a puffin who takes a more land approach, and Rod is a rooster who is ready to fly around Big Swirl Island in his all-terrain vehicle. The four friends are joined by their mentor Speedy, who helps the cadets on their different missions. Abigail Oliver and Lucas Kalechstein lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. The series ran for 2 seasons (2017–2020), building a story that gave its audience time to invest properly.

If you're looking for television that takes its characters seriously and rewards patient viewing, Top Wing is exactly that. One of the more rewarding dramas of its era.
